@John_Lucas_I @HansFiene Jefferson claiming to be a Christian isn’t the same as others saying he’s a Christian.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@3Trumpeteer @sommbc @HansFiene So then what confidence can one have that we’ll become like the father if he had no sins and we do?

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@3Trumpeteer @sommbc @HansFiene Who died for the Father’s sins?

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@John_Lucas_I @HansFiene Can you show an example of a founding Father being called a Christian but denied the divinity of Jesus? “Many have been referred to as Christian” Can’t apply the aggregate to the individual without evidence.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@hyingtokolob @BowTiedRanger Yes

@economicrvlt @BowTiedRanger If I say that I know you and continue to get your name wrong, do I actually know you? If I say you’re a 47 year old Australian and you’re actually a 34 year old Peruvian, clearly I don’t know you.

Same thing with doctrine of God.

@Roman_9292 @MattWalshBlog Wicked and evil. Stand up for human rights not eugenics.

@it_unprofession A 100 year flood has nothing to do with the ocean…. Has to do with precipitation and flooding as it rains.

@rustyhaiz @The_Ryan_Shull What were you talking about?

A lot of people are asking why more politicians are not like Ben Sasse.

Because voters will not elect them, that’s why. They may say they care about character, but most don’t vote that way.

Instead they vote party line, ideology, self-interest, or out of pique against a perceived enemy.

How can we expect our leaders to embody higher levels of virtue if a majority of voters don’t make personal character a red line?

It looks like we get the leaders we deserve.

Letting the Japanese in on our meat habits was a mistake on par with unfettered AI. We’re all about to get ribeyemogged.

@DonGrzina @chasebessard19 @JomboyMedia Not the batters fault. He gets awarded first base and then dead ball.

@MRD651894263715 @Whut_R1 @JoshAnimator It’s actually pretty easy. It’s never good killing innocent people. Solves any confusion and dilemmas.

@em_ermore17 @BennettVal4 @PelopeAl41549 You’re deciding that the life of the baby in the womb will be terminated. I would kindly but strongly ask you to see that. You’re advocating for the ability to end someone’s life. Kill them when they’re most vulnerable. In their mother’s womb. It’s a person.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@em_ermore17 @BennettVal4 @PelopeAl41549 How can you say that as you’re advocating to strip the right of life from babies in the womb. That’s the focus of our conservation. We’re not discussing those concerns you bring up, though they may be valid.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@em_ermore17 @BennettVal4 @PelopeAl41549 The fetus has all of those things. A family, parents, and life to build.

U r missing my point. Let’s take a baby the moment it’s born. It doesn’t have a life according to your definition above. Kill it?

What if we just say we don’t kill humans. Including humans in the womb.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@em_ermore17 @BennettVal4 @PelopeAl41549 Can we kill a 1 year old because they have not a “whole life they have built for themselves”?
A fetus is certainly life. Those cells are alive and distinctly different. It’s just a different stage of human development but it is a human. Not a mouse nor a louse.

[Zack Becker @DasBecker]

@em_ermore17 @BennettVal4 @PelopeAl41549 You’re doing that sidestep dance again. Moving goal posts. 🕺

Whether someone knows the difference or not is not a valid justification to take their life.

There are similarities. If family stopped paying hospital bill and taken off care, they die.
